30 Min Abs Workout for DIASTASIS RECTI, C-section Shelf

[@aishashire78]

Just wanna put this out there - I started doing this video (combined with her seated workout) once a week for 3 months and got my waist down to 31 from a 34. Combined with mindful eating and walking, this is the most effective ab workout I've ever tried. Definitely recommend.

[@cassandramay8051]

It’s so restorative and effective!! All other abs workouts I’ve done before were too hard on my body. I have done this once a week for the last month and have lost 1 1/4 inch off my waist. It actually feels like im activating and improving the function of my core.

This has opened my eyes to show me what needs to be wprked on. Thank you plz eo more of these deeper core/ pelvic floor workouts!!!

[@agatagumiela4457]

So it's been maybe 2 months since i started doing this workout - I'm usually doing some cardio from Jo's and then 15min of this (usually i do half one day and finish next day) so let's say i do at least 15min 3 times a week. When I started I had to take breaks all the time, i couldn't get my legs up and it was very clumsy. I started seeing progress, which was very exciting (my husband said "it's not getting easier, you're just getting better!" And he was definitely right!). But today I'm SOOOO proud of myself! There was only one exercise i couldn't do, the rest i did WITHOUT ANY BREAKS! To keep my head and arms up, while simultaneously moving my legs for 40 seconds?! Seemed impossible, and yet, I'm doing it 😎 as always the simple truths are the most surprising - APPARENTLY consistency IS a key after all 😂 Love you, Jo! ❤

[@WildBison74]

It’s never too late to close that gap!

[@Stop_Infanticide]

As long as you're consistent you can close it! If you're pre or post menopausal it is a longer process due to the slowing of muscle growth with the hormonal fluctuations, but on average 4-6wks of doing this daily will establish your core again. Just make sure you have it activated first! Aka, suck your belly button in towards the floor and imagine the muscles along your back pinching together to pick up a penny. Images help with visualization so feel free to look online for proper core activation. With significant DV though, you'll see a dome form in the center of your belly if you've not warmed up/activated your core (it means your back is doing the work for you). Hope this helps! ❤

It reduced to two finger gap and half a nail deep ...but I was stuck with two finger gap yet to close..n despite my efforts it was not happening.

Thank you!! Need more of these ❤ today is my second time doing it. Feeling no pain after that only feeling great. it’s been over 3 years after c section but still have about 1 finger separation and it bothers me every other day. It was 3 fingers before and physical therapy helped reducing it. With the experience of therapy I can tell this workout is very effective legitimately. Breathing between is the key ❤ I’m going to do it consistently ❤

[@WhisperedWisdom07]

This workout is the truth !!! Yesterday was my first day of trying this workout and i literally already feel it in my lower stomach

[@liltaufi310]

My kids are in their 20s now, Ive had a c-section 3 times. I was never told D.R was an actual thing. But I knew something was “off” - especially with the bulge in my stomach when I would do a sit up or how my body would shake from being too weak when my core was engaged. Doctors should send women to physical therapy after having a c-section. Thank you for this exercise Jo! Im excited to try this exercise!

[@talihahussain1072]

What is D.R?

[@veronicagarcia1105]

​@@talihahussain1072 You probably know by now but DR stands for Diastasis Recti. It's the separation of the abdominal muscles. Specially after pregnancy the muscles might not close back and have a gap in the middle of the abdomen.

[@IsiBdji]

I had my kids 31 and 23 years ago and nobody told me this either. I had one natural and one C section. It's December 2024 and started Christmas night. Praying it works and I believe it will.❤

[@MickeyTooLovesYou]

@@IsiBdjihow is it going?

[@stchhappns1180]

I've never had any children, but I'm pretty sure I have DR just from gaining weight and having poor posture working at a desk job etc. these workouts have helped me flatten my lower belly so much!

[@whosaidthat9265]

Girl!!! I just had baby #3 but my first c-section. You are right in time because I was cleared to get back to normal last week. Excited to get started

[@AishaandLife]

Not Jo inspiring me to work my core!!! I've had 3 c-sections and I haven't bounced back from my last. I absolutely hate such exercises normally but I just completed this and I feel amaing. THANK YOU!!

[@SherundaSimone]

I'm going to try this, Jo! Thanks!! After 3 Kiddos...DR has my midsection looking like I'm still pregnant at times.

[@nathaliemarin7085]

I followed your workouts before getting pregnant and loved them. I didn’t workout much during my pregnancy, now I’m 3 months postpartum and in a much better place to start giving myself some TLC. I can feel my body NEEDING to workout and my belly is much different then it was before I got pregnant so this video couldn’t have come at a better time! Thanks Jo! ❤

[@08roroller]

Yay! Pregnant with my 5th🤰🏽 Can’t wait to do this postpartum!

Amazing video, Jo. I am 6 years postpartum but I’ve only recently started to work on my DR. I think this workout is going to be a game changer.

First time trying this video! im getting a bit discouraged because my tummy fat is getting in the way and i feel weak, and it feels really hard. but the comments are making me motivated to continue. still at it!

I'm the same!!

[@haileylee4503]

I absolutely love your videos so much!!! i talk about your channel to every person I know. I’ve never been able to keep myself motivated enough to work out regularly i often do it for a week then stop. Something about your videos have me coming back every day and the fact that there is such a variety!!! Thankyou for everything you do and also for keeping it free i always get so disappointed when i try a new workout app and there’s always a subscription fee

I am 4 month postpartum after having 2 pregnancies back to back. I currently have a 3 finger DR and a pretty messed up core in general (these pregnancies wreeeecked me)... I will start doing this video every day and see what the results are in a month! Today is Day 1! 😃

I had to have a complete hysterectomy 19 years ago due to endometriosis. The past few years I've had a lot of trouble losing weight in that area. I've been super consistent with working out with you for the past year, 6 days a week. I'm so excited to add this workout to my weekly regime and see results. You make it all fun Jo thanks for all you do. 🇨🇦🥰🇲🇽

[@piakara3386]

I really love your workouts and the way you keep it real. I'm excited for this one to heal my weak core after my pregnancies and get my strength back. I would like kindly to suggest, though, to switch the music style into something more healing to the heart and soul and keep it low in volume. I would love a video for DR like this where you explain the exercises and what to be aware of while suggesting alternations depending on ones level instead of the music. To me, this kind of music is kind of annoying, and I need to turn down the volume but then have a hard time hearing the sound to switch to the next exercise. Still, the exercises are incredible though 👏

[@BluePhoenix1]

I LOVED this. It was defintely a challenge as most of the workouts I do regularly aren't focused on the core. This is going in the rotation. Thanks Jo!
